                              Rob Russo is an aspiring software developer, a swell guy who wants you to hear his thoughts on everything tech. He simply oozes boyish charm.

                              Candice Poon loves technology, productivity, and mac & cheese. She often doesn't pay attention crossing the street because she's too busy reading Twitter.
